Stylized classic Macintosh with a large X representing the Roman numeral 10 on screenWe’ve updated Macstock’s list of presenters headed your way in July and we’re now looking to have one of the largest lineups of speakers since … gosh … 2019?? It’s been a while since we’ve had this many presenters, but I’m excited at the voices who’ll be joining us this year including several presenting for the very first time from Macstock’s stage!

A few of the presenters added to the line up since last month include: Brett Terpstra, Kirschen Seah, Jill McKinley, Brian Flanigan-Arthurs, and Michael D.J. Eisenberg — with more on the way!

We’re kicking off 10 Years of Macstock this summer with Macstock 8 and whether you take in the Weekend Sessions or attend the new Friday Workshops, Macstock’s presenters are ready to help you Level UP your productivity, knowledge, and skill sets with new tools & tips that you can put to use right away! It’s going to be a great weekend and you’ll be seeing our speaker line up continue to grow as we get closer to July.

I’m finalizing talk descriptions with this year’s presenters, so keep an eye out for the full Workshop and Weekend Session descriptions to begin appearing in the days ahead!
